This place was top notch amazing everything was so good, although it was crowded the bar in front was nice to grab a drink to make you forget about the wait time (with reservations). However the staff done to the wonderful bartender she was a woman who works Sunday nights-her drinks were impeccable! Everyone was kind, the waiter was knowledgeable and the food was absolutely delightful! You have to go regardless of the hype it is absolutely worth it! A new Miami staple for me! read more

Carbone 100% lives up to the hype. The interior is stunning, an upscale Italian theme with moody ambiance. Service is excellent, explains the menu well. I started with one of the best espresso martinis I have ever had, great coffee flavor with a hint of chocolate and creaminess. The complimentary appetizers are delicious - i loved the picked cauliflower and onions which were sour with a nice crunch, the salami is soft and savory, and the bread basket variety is perfection (LOVED the tomato bread and garlic). I had to try the famous spicy rigatoni and was so pleased. The pasta is al dente and the sauce is scrumptious - creamy and does have a bit of a kick! You end with a little yummy Italian cookie. Would absolutely recommend this spot. read more

I got a Mojito and a spicy rigatoni and it was absolutely amazing. I also loved all the small little appetizers they give you with your meal. It was super nice and then they also give you some bread and the service was absolutely phenomenal. It was honestly one of the best service I've ever gotten at a restaurant. I will definitely be coming back here and the ambience was absolutely gorgeous. Inside it was such a high and Italian restaurant on South Beach and Everything about it was just perfect. read more

What a fun experience! We went for the SOBE Food and Wine festival event hosted by Gold Belly. We were welcomed in, and escorted to our table. The place is beautiful inside and out. We had multiple items, I will post the photo of the menu. Everything was delicious! The team members couldn't have been any better. They were efficient, professional, funny and kind. We had one person that doesn't eat meat, and our waiter made sure she was well taken care of. The favorites at our table were the eggplant, meatballs, tuna, tartar, pasta was made perfectly, carrot cake and the rainbow cake. Every dish had great flavor, great presentation and was hitting every taste bud. The restrooms were well maintained, they have valet parking, and have the option of indoor/outdoor seating. We most definitely will be back. The restaurant is Trendy Chic. Enjoy!! read more

Beautiful interior and ambience. very old school dining room design, and great music (old rock and soul type). Complimentary basket was delicious - especially the tomato bread (red sauce on toasty bread). It was dripping oil with each bite though, but I personally didn't mind it. Salami and pickled cauliflower came with the bread basket, also complimentary. Made the prices hurt less for sure. Caesar was prepared table side. Personally I thought it needed more dressing. Croutons were oily as hell but huge and crunchy and super flavorful. Again I didn't mind the oil though. Anchovies are optional but weren't as fishy as I prefer. Mozzarella was also prepared table side and was ok. Ours did not stretch the way we saw it did in TikTok's. The vegetarian option puts the mozzarella on top a bed of carmelized bell pepper and onions. Spicy rigatoni was good, no complaints. I liked the mushroom fettuccine more personally, very silky shroomy sauce. Did not get dessert besides the complimentary Italian flag cake at the end, but included pic of the comically large dessert tray that they bring to your table instead of the usually expected dessert menu. Overall a really fun experience with good food. I would definitely go again, and the complimentary snacks really won me over. read more

We really enjoyed it. The drinks were amazing. We had the cafe reposado and a few glasses of really good red wine. The ambience was great and it was really fun. We got the spicy rigatoni and beet siciliana and the artichoke hearts. The food was good, but maybe we would've ordered something else. It wasn't mind blowing. read more

First things first! Please ensure you make your reservation at least 30 days in advance of your desired dining date. While reservations may not be readily available, our exceptional customer service makes the process understandable. Upon arrival, you're warmly greeted at the door before being escorted to your table by our friendly host. We enjoyed dining outdoors on the patio, taking advantage of the perfect weather - breezy and humidity-free - which enhanced the experience. The palm trees and outdoor setup added to the beauty of the surroundings. Indoors, the ambiance is equally stunning, with exquisite light fixtures setting the mood. To begin, they offer a fresh bread basket, pickled cauliflower, and savory meats for sharing at the table. We also opted for a Caesar salad, which was expertly prepared tableside. One serving of the salad proved ample for all three of us. The San Pellegrino water was included unlimited for a fixed price. Additionally, I ordered a Shirley Temple, which was beautifully crafted. For my meal, I opted for the popular vodka spicy pasta. Surprisingly, there was no hint of spice, and the noodles were slightly undercooked for my liking. I was anticipating a more savory flavor in the pasta dish. I also tried their meatballs and Toetellini Al Ragu. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience, especially the exceptional hospitality provided, which truly elevated the dining experience. Additionally, there were a few celebrities present, adding an element of excitement--you never know who you might see! read more

People come for the rigatoni. And don't get me wrong, the rigatoni was top tier as always. But we really came here for the Cesar salad.

Carbone is my favorite restaurant so far in Miami. The service is excellent, the ambiance is gorgeous, cozy, very upscale. The drinks are 10/10. I usually order whiskey sours. They have a stunning platter of cakes that are brought to your table for you to choose (they are all exquisite so good luck ordering just one). LOVED the variety of breads and hams. Great pastas. Great meat. High quality restaurant. Reservations months in advance are a must. !!! read more

Been here about a dozen times now. This review is long overdue. This place could be good; if only it were good every time I went. It's so hit or miss. We're past the point of making rezzies like regular schmucks but even still, it's inconsistent. The ac dripping in the dining room is appalling. The busboys cleaning the vents with the bottom of a mop/broom over the tables with food and patrons sitting close by is just so off. They need to fix this properly. Pretty sure how they're handling it is a health violation. The complimentary cheese is experiencing shrinkflation. It's smaller every time I go. It always takes too to bring that to the table too. Hi. We're here. We want the cheese, NOW! The spicy rig is NEVER the same. It's never bad but it's never been the same twice. Very odd. Espresso martinis are delicious but the rose was room temperature (disgusting). Jake fixed it for us but it's one of those things that they should make right and say, this glass is on us. Nope. The chopped salad is always some sort of different combination of radicchio and lettuce but never the same proportions. The last week we were there twice and the oil on it was most certainly spoiled when we were there the second time. Did try the carrot cake. The ginger ice cream completely destroys the delicacy of the carrot cake. What a shame. read more

Rigatoni and mushroom and ribeye were excellent! Anthony and Tony were such pleasures and offered great service.

Perhaps as torn as I've ever been writing a review, because much of this experience was 5 star. But there was one component that was so off putting that I'm afraid it's what will stick with me and drags the review down 2 stars. To start, I'm from NYC and was in Miami on vacation and out with old friends. Carbone's is impossible to book in NYC so was excited for Miami reservation. When we arrived I had book the room for outside (because outdoor dining in Jan is a treat for NYers) but quickly realized that the interior is part of the show at Carbone's. The hostess wasn't accommodating at all and wouldn't switch our table, but I let that go as ultimately was my fault. On to the rest of the meal, which was as advertised...tremendous. Bread basket, table side Caesar, spicy rig, veal parm and the standout may have been the pork chop. All amazing, pricey of course, but loved the service and theatricality of it all. So the rub... When we were ordering the main waiter mentioned one of the special apps was burrata, which sounded like a nice 3rd option. When it arrived it was covered in caviar. That was not mentioned when describing the dish. Well, now that we were a few cocktails and 1/2 a bottle of wine in we didn't think to ask for the price as it wasn't offered either when pitching the appetizer. Turns out that app was $150. So, it took a very expensive meal to an extraordinarily expensive one. But we all felt duped. Like the theatrics weren't for fun and enjoyment, rather to extract us out of an extra $150 for something none of use would have ordered had we known the extra ingredient and price ahead of time. The kicker was a separate hostess we hadn't seen all night, maybe 5 minutes after we paid the check, came over and told us we needed to hurry along as the time allotment was up. So, yes, amazing food and a fun experience in Miami with friends. But the illusion of the theatrics was punctured by an unadvertised upsell and poor hostess experiences prior to and after our meals. Suspect I'm going to check my experience at Carbone's off as "one and done". read more

After spending $1,000 on dinner, I was still eating when the hostess came over and told me I needed to leave so they could seat another party. I had only been there 1.5 hours, but the manager insisted this was their normal practice. No apology, no consideration--just a clear message that I was nothing more than a check to them. A word of advice? Do not pay your bill until you're actually ready to leave. read more

Came to Carbone Miami for the first time with my wife for our anniversary dinner. We were really excited to check it out. Some parts of the night were great, but a few things didn't quite live up to the hype. We got seated right away, and our server was amazing. Super friendly and made us feel comfortable from the start. The complimentary bread basket was a nice touch. The pizza bread especially was warm and tasted incredible. We split the Caesar salad, which they prepared table-side. It was a cool experience, and honestly, the croutons were my favorite part. For our entrees, we had the lobster ravioli and the spicy vodka pasta. Both were just okay. They looked good, but the flavors felt kind of flat, and the pasta was way too al dente for me. Customer service overall was excellent. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was a little different than expected. It had a low-key vibe, but hearing Biggie Smalls blasting during dinner threw me off a bit. Not necessarily a bad thing, just not what I imagined for a fancy Italian anniversary dinner. Glad we tried it, but probably wouldn't go out of our way to come back. That pizza bread though... definitely a highlight. read more

2 stars for the decor and the complimentary items. We waited 20 minutes past reservation time to be seated despite arriving early. Once seated, we were rushed to order and not allowed to order appetizers before deciding on our meal. We were told we had to order everything at once. So we did and everything came out too quickly. Waiter never introduced himself. We also weren't offered cheese from a cheese wheel but saw other tables get it offered. The spicy vodka pasta was way too al dente it was almost hard. I can make better pasta at home with their sauce from the grocery store. read more

5/555555. - Although the food was incredible - the service really takes the cake here. Everyone is so kind and really makes your dining experience special. Would return if I lived in Miami! For the food we had the caprese, spicy rigatoni, and pork chop. The complimentary bread basket was a 10/10. Great vibes read more

The food speaks for itself. You walk in and you feel like you're walking into a 1960s mob meeting. It's lightly dimmed, gaudy decor, staff dressed in suits. You definitely need to dress to impress and if you're lucky you'll get a glimpse of a celebrity. I did feel you are being judged at every turn, but the food justifies it (i guess). The espresso martinis were creamy and delicious. The free bread that comes before the food was a surprise. The fluffy bread topped with tomato sauce was incredible and almost melted in your mouth. For entrees, the spicy rigatoni is everything. I would go back and just order multiple of these. The Dover Picatta was hands down the best fish dish I have ever had. The meatballs were plentiful and seasoned well. The table side Caesar salad was fun to watch and even came with whole anchovies. Everything we had honestly was amazing. Staff was attentive but we could tell we were be scooted out, which I'm sure they have plenty of reservations to fulfill read more

The waiters where Valet suits that looks super cool. I believe this place makes everybody feel important and the food is absolutely amazing the biggest hype Dish is the spicy rigatoni and it does not disappoint is crème de la crème. Baked clams are amazing. One of them had sea urchin, and it just melted in my mouth. The truffle corn is exceptional overloaded with truffle. The Seabass was lightly seasoned and very nice. the tomahawk was probably the best steak I've ever had in my life, don't forget the Caesar salad, which is made in front of you and has pumpernickel croutons that are amazing. This is the place you go when you want to impress yourself or your date 10 out of 10. read more

The ambiance here was spectacular, the service was amazing, and the food and cocktails were delightful.

Second time at Carbone, first time was in Vegas and tonight at the Miami Beach location. Vegas experience was better, or maybe our server tonight messed the experience up for us. But tonight's visit was my last too. It's become overhyped and was an okay experience today. Although it's an awesome vibe inside and out. But if your coming here your coming for the name honestly. Food is not mind blowing but good if you're going for the first time. read more

This restaurant is so overrated. They sat us at a table that was next to the door so every other min someone was going in and out... that is just unacceptable when you are spending $1000 on a dinner... The waitress told us the food was family style and let me tell you it was not... portions are teeny tiny... the waitress was professional but wasn't accommodating and made us feel weird bc we had so many question's about the menu since it is so limited... don't go here... don't waste your time... it's not even a great vibe... I don't recommend this place at all... the food was good but not worth the money... the portions are small and not filling at all and the desserts suck... read more
